Hi Frets, thanks for the pics. I thought about the troughs while I was building the dash hood. I thought about making a pattern and airbrushing the hood to make it look like troughs but in the end I just ommited them. I am trying to learn how to do all the scale detailing but I'm finding I may not have the patience it takes I was not planning on doing the gun sight because of all the small pieces it would take to assemble it, but after you posted the excellent pics I may have to give it a try.
I have spent the last couple of days priming and sanding the wing so not much to show in pics. I also cut all the holes in the cowl for my O.S. 91 and made some air ducting to aid in keeping the engine cool.
